Swatch Saturday: Maybelline stripped nudes

This Maybelline (color sensational) stripped nudes lipstick collection has been around since last year, but because ‘Nude’ lips seems to be a repeat trend for this Winter, I thought I would do a swatch post for them.

There are 6 shades in the collection, but I only have 5…I have slowly collected them over a few months haha.

The same order as the 1st photo, L to R. (sorry, Sultry Sand didn’t show up well)

I was going to post lip swatches too, but my skin is playing up ATM and I couldn’t be bothered redoing the swatches with foundation on. However, I will comment on which shades I liked the most for my skin-tone.

Sultry Sand was not working for me at all! Because it’s so pale, it went on pretty sheer and made it look like I had no lips. It might be good as a lip base, under another colour maybe?Tantalizing Taupe was the perfect nude lip colour for me, it has a pink undertone and it’s not too light.Honey Beige was too yellow toned for me (I am cool toned, so this doesn’t suit me at all).Coffee craze seems like it would be suitable for both cool and warm toned complexions. It is a ‘warm’ looking brown, but it worked on me still.Naked Brown is a great winter shade if you’re into dark lip colours during the cooler months. It’s a deep almost mahogany brown.

Pretty shades…well except for Sultry Sand. It look so pale and dull for me. I would opt for Coffee Craze. It matches my skin tone. Can’t wait to try it out!Jess recently posted…Where Can I Find LifeCell Eye Cream?
